Rooted in centuries-old Indian healing tradition, Ayurvedic massage uses warm herbal oils and rhythmic, flowing strokes to restore balance throughout the body and mind — a holistic ritual as much as a physical treatment. Our session can also feature Kizhi, the traditional Kerala technique of massaging with heated herbal poultices, for guests who want an even deeper, more therapeutic experience.
What Is Kizhi?
Kizhi is a hallmark of authentic Ayurvedic bodywork — cotton pouches filled with warmed medicinal herbs and rice, dipped in therapeutic oil and pressed rhythmically over the muscles. The gentle, penetrating heat helps loosen stiffness, improve circulation and calm the nervous system in a way a standard massage alone cannot.
